@kosmonaut said in DuckDuckGo Mystery: No, JS is enabled. Whoops that's not true. JS was enabled for html.duckduckgo.com/html but for DuckDuckGo.com it was blocked! Clearing that solved the problem. Thank you again!

@Catweazle Thanks, I installed a few of those.

Thank you! Worked for me also.

This happened to me on mac too. What you mentioned resolved the issue. Thank you

Thanks so much Gwen-Dragon - after much messing around with the 'user-switching Agent' extension yesterday - this was the issue - Great work on solving the problem - much appreciated - have as good a Christmas as you can - and let's all hope for a better 2021

@cjrking53 Currently without SSL or with StartTLS not supported. Thank you for reaching out and sorry for the trouble. May be this issue is a bug. Please read Help us reproduce your issue How to report a bug for Vivaldi carefully and report the bug to Vivaldi bugtracker. Again thank you for using Vivaldi.

@killermiller Thank you for finding the weirdly hidden chrome setting! I thought I was going crazy as to why I could not disable DoH in Vivaldi (and why it was on in the first place!) after the update to 3.5... Not being able to open local network sites, pointed to by a local DNS (with proxy for other requests) was a no go with this setup.

@Gwen-Dragon Thanks for the tip. I was using outdated information from a text file. When I checked my accounts in Opera, it was using IMAP, with ports 993 and 587. Now it works, but the port has changed to 465.

After much searching I found the culprit. For some reason the cookies settings were set to "session only". I have no memory of changing it but it happened at the same time as I upgraded my system to Big Sur so it never occured to me that a setting would have changed in vivaldi. Anywho.. if anyone else has this irritating problem, this is the settings..

@RjGunner111 A identification (Browsername and version) a browser sends to web servers.

@Gwen-Dragon No surprise there, but Vivaldi needs better cookie management anyway. Even if this doesn’t affect Vivaldi, the system is already broken as is. Database storage, filesystem storage and service workers aren’t deleted when quitting Vivaldi, no matter what you set. It has to be handled manually by visiting chrome settings. It’s stupid.

The missing permission of a extension in context menu is a huge lack of usability. BUG VB-71594 "Missing permission submenu in extension button menu"

Thanks for giving the location. I found it. Really appreciate the help!

@Gwen-Dragon as I've mentioned, this mod causes the same bug as the floating panels and tries to do the same. After changing the code from this: #main .inner { position: relative; } #panels-container { position: absolute; z-index: 1; top: 0; bottom: 0; background-color: var(--colorBg); } #panels-container.right { right: 0; } To this: #main .inner { position: relative; } #panels-container { position: absolute; z-index: 1; height: 100%; background-color: var(--colorBg); } #panels-container.right { right: 0; } #webview-container { margin-left: 34px; } Everything works as expected. I don't know if the floating panels provided by Vivaldi work the same way, but maybe this information can also be helpful.

@speedy_von_gofast Thanks for your reply. I will tag the thread.

@ratagaymerpro I restored your first post as the images are useful for others if they run into such issue. Please, a user should not delete posts if a problem is resolved.

The file you want to edit on Ubuntu is: ~/.config/vivaldi/Local\ State Specifically, you should remove: "enabled_labs_experiments":["enable-force-dark@7"] This is a nasty thing to stumble upon, as it completely breaks the browser from opening and there is not an obvious fix for the problem, except finding the file above and manually removing the change. Would be useful to have a "revert to working state" feature.
